Universal Food Security: How to End Hunger While Protecting the Planet

Imagine a world where every person enjoys a healthy diet derived from sustainable food systems. Seriously. Take a moment to visualize a genuinely food-secure world—where everyone gets to consume the right quantity and quality of food to live a healthy, active, and productive life. No hunger. No obesity. No malnutrition.

Now, take a further step to imagine a world where the food needed for those healthy diets is produced, managed, and distributed in ways that do not harm the environment. From production to consumption, contemplate the possibility of food systems that halt environmental degradation and even begin to repair the damage that has been done in our desperate efforts to feed humanity.

Healthy diets for all, from sustainable food systems: Universal Food Security.

The Columbia School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA), in partnership with the Healthy and Sustainable Food Systems Network of the Columbia Climate School, is pleased to host an event to explore the prospects and challenges for achieving Universal Food Security.

Refreshments will be served at the reception after the event.
